Cheap 2009 Sportback VR Platinum $13990!!!!

I might see if i can go past on the weekend and check it out for you guys. There only 5 mins away from me.

Bewarned they have been known to be a bit dodgy.

It can't be an Aspire as they don't come in Sportback - it is quite odd vehicle - bits and pieces of others and no badge on the rear. Can the VIN give away any clues as to its model designation? And the price, well....

Maybe it was a repaired write off? or rebirth - should get a REV check.

[Chubb]

Does not look like a genuine battery could be a hint to a repaired vehicle, the only lancer I know the have battery issues before 10 000km is Aspir3's

Hard to tell, I reckon it's a VRX with VR wheels. The internal trimming has the glossy vrx strips not the matte silver ones.

Only sure way to tell is check engine model number, the front airdams if they are oem or not.

[Bandit]

It doesn't have a VRX rear spoiler, it is a VR/Platinum one. And if they are saying it is a 2 litre, then it can't be a VRX as the sportback only became available from MY09, which had the 2.4litre donk.

My money is on resurrected car, all the other cars they are selling have normal prices, so something must be up with this one. The amount of mismatching parts is a worry and the missing badge... Yeah.

It's a Platinum edition. Dealer is probably not aware of it though, hence it is labeled as ES.

Platinum is VR Spec with the addition of:

* Chrome Top Grille
* MMCS
* VRX-spec Bluetooth

The front airdams were probably thrown in as part of the deal, that's certainly not unheard of around here surely?

Willing to put money against what I've said.

In saying that it should then be priced around 20k from a dealer with those kms and options.

I will do my best to go past over the weekend and sus it out incase anyone is interested.

Then you would agree the price is somewhat ridiculous? People dont give away $8,000 without losing their jobs

Pricing is correct for an ES, which the dealer seems to think it is.

It can't be at a Mitsubishi dealership surely, as they would have entered the VIN in their computer and it would flag as a Platinum.

Quick! lets buy and sell!

[Dire]

Its weird it doesn't have its platinum badge though. You don't forget to leave the badge off a limited edition.

[milobob]

HAha, I'd buy it, rip out the MMSC and bluetooth, put in my old CD stacker and sell it for the same price
